3 HD streams today. . . I think.

3 HD streams today. . . I think.

I've been interested in adding the Premier HD Pkg so I called CS and checked into a 3rd HD stream to go with it. Yes we can add that today. You have the extra bandwidth, not a problem. Just give it a "couple" minutes and restart your primary (DVR) receiver. No need to restart your RG.

Did all of that. Still no 3rd stream showing up in my Sys Resources. I tried to record 2 HD shows while watching a 3rd. No go. I have 1 HD & 1 SD TV. The only way (?) I can test for 3 HD streams.

After restarting everything with an AT&T symbol, called CS back. CS said everything here looks fine. Showing 3 streams on their equipment. Transfer to Tech Support. Same thing showing there.

Here's how it ended up per Tech Support:

I have 3 streams, it just doesn't show it on my end.

It will update on my equipment to show the 3rd stream "... the next time it updates".

The DVR cannot record 2 HD streams simultaneously due to limitations.

( I told tech guy I was recording 2 channels HD while we spoke. Tried to watch a 3rd live HD and could not.)

I just question the DVR limitation thing. I guess I'm not sure on the combination of live / record possibilities of 3 HD streams.

I'm in the Madison, WI. Market. Janesville to be precise. If you live around here give 'em a call! CS said it "popped up right away" as available.

We are now testing 4 HD streams with 3 record/1 watch in several markets using the 32/5 profile. Should be rolled out by end of the year.

Oh, who is we , another ATT employee comes out of the woodwork, pretending he isn't an employee, on a weekend or holiday thinking Wendy's not gonna be on him (yeah, we already know from uverseusers.com and dslreports Uverse and 4HD has been reported here).

Ingress will take 24hrs to 1sd/3hd update then you can watch the 3 HD feed on your DVR while recording 1SD and 2HD feeds. You can't record the 3rd HD feed or you'd lose that feeds ability to pause live tv or rewind. And no you don't need to reboot your DVR. It will just show up.

Yeh, just showed up for me in Columbus, Ohio. Now I don't have to cancel one of my sons cartoons every morning in order to watch the news. Actually it gave me the blue screen when the two programs started recording but I just had to press continue and I can watch whatever I want.

Thanks for the responses. It seems like something they need to fix, as FTTP should have no problem supporting the 32/5 profile and thereby allowing the 3 HD streams or the Max Turbo (24/3).

I have FTTP and got the 1SD/3HD profile today. I thought this day would never come, as seeing regular copper users in the same area had it for the longest time. I restarted my STB today, not sure if that caused the new profile (I noticed it just now.) Did the new profile get pushed out to you as well?

You're just now getting 3/1? I've been FTTP since I moved to this apartment complex in Oct. of last year and I had 3/1 for quite a while now.

I'm a new user. I'm on my fourth month now and just got 3HD. I really don't get AT&T's position on their random profile roll-outs to FTTP users. Who knows what part of the country is getting the new 3HD profile on their FTTP line tomorrow.

I just rebooted RG and DVR and still no 3HD. Must be rolling it out city by city. Where are you ChrisW? I am in Chicago suburbs. I am excited to hear other FTTP folks are getting upgraded though. I will keep waiting and rebooting every week or so.
